I don't care where you're going Don't Don't punish me for what I feel Don't Don't punish me for what I feel So I crawled out of the back door Took off all these tight clothes Jumped into the water So I crawled out of the back door Took off all these tight clothes Jumped into the water I jumped into the water The water My face was numb, my lungs were sore But still I swam until my feet could touch the shore I've been sleeping on your porch I'm still too scared to bust the lock on your door So I crawled out of the back door Took off all these tight clothes Jumped into the water So I crawled out of the back door Took off all these tight clothes Jumped into the water I jumped into the water The water The water
